I have searched for 22.03.01 version of Panda and everywhere I find only 22.03.05. I have 22.03.01 installed on my computers (via online installer when it was new) but never managed to find offline installer. @AstroSkipper Instead of your 21.x.x version, I believe 22.03.01 would also be fast on your computer. Would you help me find it? I just can't seem to locate it anywhere, including the archive.org.

My Browser Builds (Part 5)
modnar replied to roytam1's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
Yeah, upon further testing (today) I too observed that no setting fixes the dumpster fire that is the new garbage collection patch that's been added by upstream and already thrown out. So we'll just gonna have to rough it till the next release. New finding: memory.low_physical_memory_threshold_mb seems to help work around the fiery dumpster on some sites; I set it to 1536. Check your "Physical memory" in "Task Manager". P.P.S.: I finally reverted to 5-15 version. :-/ -

Good too; instead of collecting garbage, it's a dumpster fire itself. P.S.: Is there a way one can disable it till saturday? -

With current defaults memory consumption by the basilisk.exe will go to even north of 1600K (which never went before) and CPU constantly at 25% (one whole core occupied) and browser completely unresponsive. I have observed that setting javascript.options.gc_on_memory_pressure to true ameliorates the memory problem (memory consumption stays at around 1000K), but no the CPU-one (I tried different settings, but haven't found one that worked). P.S.: This memory saving setting (javascript.options.gc_on_memory_pressure) is "true" by default in newer firefox versions (or so I have read). -

You're quite correct, I already deleted this extension from my installation. Sad too, because this latest version (2026-05-22) is super leaky, runs out of memory so fast (on imgur) and even if you just go to majorgeeks.com and then come here writing the reply is all choppy. What is being put in the water upstream? -

It is not 2x faster, but helps in the overall browsing experience - to bridge the gaps so to speak. Sadly it's not anymore listed in Mozilla Addons, yet it was there about a year ago; I got it thanks to the Internet Archive. -

Memory Fox (1.0) pluging improves browsing experience (smoother) with Serpent 52.9. Browser still becomes unusable/unresponsive @~1.3GB RAM usage (and one CPU core completely occupied). -

Another thing - as experiment I enabled the memory.free_dirty_pages . Would this be like the memory_saver option in Supermium/Chrome?
